On Stealing Things and Other Occurences
So I met up with my friend Caitlin tonight, we're totally the dynamic duo. She was my only real friend in school all through High School and she's really the only worldy person I've ever met who doesn't drink, do drugs, or have sex. I love this girl and I pray one day she'll listen to what I have to say and turn away from her current religion that she's very involved in. Anyways, we went out to the coffee house to get some hot chocolate with no real plan in mind. Once we received the hot beverages we did our favorite thing- stalk asian kid from high school (I don't want to write his name..what if he googles it and this journal comes up? Our cover will be blown!). I'm obsessed with this asian kid, not in a romantic-I-want-you way..he's just awesome. He made fun of me every single day of senior year (we shared 5 out of 8 classes together) and made me laugh harder then anyone ever has while doing so. We were buddies. So, my friend and I stalked his house some because it's our biggest joke for some reason..I really can't explain why. Besides, sitting in a car infront of someone's house drinking hot chocolate is fun..it makes you feel like a cop or something on a stake out. Of course it does get boring after a while so we moved onwards. Our next target was this house in the next town over that puts up so much christmas lights and decorations that the town now pays the people to do it because it has become a tourist attraction. So we parked across the street and just stared at the house for a while. Then Caitlin, at my urging, jumped out of the car and stole the police regulation signs that said we could not park where we were parked. We made a quick get-away after that. We contemplated stealing more signs but we decided just to go back to my house and eat some cream puffs. Quite fun indeed.
Updated: My friend now informs me that on the stake the sign is on the following is written: "Do Not Take" which of course just makes the whole thing better!

lol, can you steal me a sign sometime, i think it would look good in my apt, like maybe a no parking sign right above the toilet... i dunno, although i dont think it will go with kt's candles... but whatever.
i hit a speed limit sign once, which i promptly...returned. i mean. kept.
that was you 2 outside my house
Yes..oh man, I can't believe you saw us!
i was neked too geezit !
o man, we used to steal signs all the time, Nick has a bunch in his house... once we took his sign that said "Temporary Mens Room" (i have no idea y it said that but it was so funny we couldn't resist) and now its hanging on Nicks wall... When i move, i'm determined to keep my street sign cuz it is just such a big part of my life... i think i'm gonna ask the town if i can have it.. haha
you guys really shouldnt steel signs, years ago in woodbridge some kids did this,they stole a stop sign from one of the back roads, ,well long story short, people went through it and somebody ended up dying cause there was no stop sign!
Never stole a sign,I used to have a fetish for stealing golf balls from different places, and i stoled a skiball once, forks and knives, yada yada.. I don't do this anymore,, ha ha, I duno why i even did
Well..the sign I stole wasn't like one of those kind of street signs. It was like one of those signs that people staple to a stake and stab into the ground.
I would love a stolen street sign. Unfortunately I am a wuss and a chicken. The very next day i'd end up along the road trying to repair the sign. I am a perpetually guilty person (and a goody-goody)
On a more legal note,I think there are ppl who sell customized street signs online.
so does anyone drive around and SHOOT signs with guns, ive always seen marks in them, and ive wondered...
no, noone ever does that.
But now that he mentions it..
are you thinking what i'm thinking?
yeah. i'll drive.
This is totally better then our previous idea of driving around and shooting people with the huge super soaker I have!
YESSSSS!! i am so excited!!!
i'll bring the pump-action
who's going to navigate????? and be the cell phone person?
I will!! What does the cell phone person do?
I'll help if I can be assured I won't get into trouble with the superior authorities...or any adults for that matter.
the cell person texts other people to let them know repeatedly we are having more fun than they are
clearly you are also trying to become the queen of HTML. thank goodness for not using the scrolling marquee.
uh... i kno ur talking but i don't know what its about....
Ah! We can get two of us on the job..cover more territory.
too loud. i'm using a silenced pistol or something. i'm not trying to get arrested.
i was in the car once with two pioneer brothers and as we drove one of them had a fake bb gun i guess and little pellets and just kept shooting signs.
YES!!!!!!...w/bee bee guns of course, I hope you didn't mean like w/actual 9 millimeters or something - I mean, I know how much of a gangster you are...but, jesse has this awesome bee bee shot gun - that's one of my favorite pass times when i'm up there..i'm a pretty good shot too
man..I totally want in on some of this shooting business.
that's b/c when we're kids, we're not allowed to play with guns, so when we get a little older, well, you see the evidence
funny thing: this statement is 100% true
Hmm..very true statement..not quite sure how it fits as a reply to mine, but so true.
yeah i'm not sure what i was trying to reply to, but this statement definitely makes sense - i remember when i finally turned 18 i went out and bought some ridiculously huge super soakers. because i always REALLY wanted one.
this, was an amusing story....now, about these signs, how exactly did you go about removing them?..like...most signs are stuck firmly into the ground
This was just a wooden stake in the ground so she just yanked it right out.
